Meditation and Prayer

Well it certainly would be nice to sit like Buddha and smile through all the challenges and tribulations that are coming our way. Meditation and prayer are viable and important tools with which to shape our lives and the very nature of our personal consciousness. In a pinch they offer us comfort and even sanity when we confront things beyond our control

There is so much that can be said about meditation and prayer but the most important thing is to practice rather than talk or conceptualize about them. Both involve a doing. Meditation and prayer involve actions on a non-physical level and in fact are processes that connect us to the astral level of existence and to a deep and meaningful connection with everything and everyone around us.

Christ’s prayer—As I walk through the valley and shadow of death I shall fear no evil because the Lord is with me—is one of the ultimate prayers that each of us should be familiar with because all of us live in the shadow of death.

We all will die sooner or later and it’s comforting to know and identify with something that will keep our fears of death at bay. Meditation and prayer through the years build a quality of being that is better able to meet death face-to-face—something we all must do.

Through meditation and prayer we can shape our own self worth; we can deliberately shape our consciousness into something that not only we can enjoy but also those around us find beautiful, attractive and interesting.

In my book HeartHealth is a series of practices of a different kind whose goal is the opening up of one’s feeling center, one’s heart and being with all their vulnerabilities. The first HeartHealth exercise drives us to directly seek out the tears of the melting heart, a process that heals as we open. It’s as simple as feeling our feelings but interestingly enough, this is extraordinarily difficult for the majority who have locked up their vulnerabilities and hurts. People are so identified with their minds and thoughts that their ability to get in touch with vulnerable feelings atrophies.

What I would like to share today is a very simple centering and expanding meditation protocol that yields quick results if practiced daily. The result one achieves is directly proportional to one’s persistence and consistency of practice.

The main obstacle and difficulty is that our minds do not want to get out of the way. Try not thinking for even 30 seconds and you will see what I mean. About 20 years ago I was proficient at doing this for upwards of 20 minutes at a time and I tell you it’s something to be experienced. Spending time in an isolation chamber is helpful in assisting one to arrive at this particular station.

Basic Centering Meditation

One can sit or lie down to do this meditation and it is best to start by taking some deep abdominal breaths. One standard way of doing this is to use the mind—give it something to do. One can count to 10 or 20 on the in breath, hold for the same count, and exhale also counting. The mind, in general, can only think about one thing at a time so here we replace the mind’s tendency to run around in rapid circles (chase its own tail) with the counting.

After a minute or two of this one begins to imagine the breath coming into the brain like a cooling wind to wash away the thought flow further. It’s helpful to imagine the breath like water flowing into a washing machine, washing our brains, clearing away all the dirt we normally have running around in our minds. One can do this for a few moments or move quickly to the next part.

We then drop our focus down to our heart center, to the point in our chests between our breasts, and feel our feelings. Here we breathe in, get a feeling of ourselves, and then breathe out, expanding our awareness and consciousness to the entire world, sending out a wave of compassion and empathy to all fellow beings who share this planet with us.

After we do this several times with several breaths we bring our consciousness down to our first chakra, to the red sexual center and breathe in, feeling our vitality, and then on the out breath we send this energy and awareness to our body. Instead of breathing out to the rest of the world we breathe out to the colony of cells, and even to our astral form, the vital energy we have or can feel from our genital area.

If we are doing this right we will actually feel the effects. First in a deepening calmness and cleanness of mind, then in expansion as we send our heart center feeling of self out to the entire world, and then in part three we feel ourselves charged up with energy.

So actually this is like self-guided imagery that parallels feelings. The imagination is, after all, the creative power; all artists know this. So we can pick up the instrument of our imagination and use it to create some sweeter inner music. This three step meditation can be repeated over and over at each sitting and should be done daily for best results.

“Earth is approaching a threshold—the crossroads in human history where decisions to safeguard the planet and the human race or plunge unwittingly into the abyss of disaster will mark our every weighted step advancing into the future. Never before in recorded history have there been so many potential threats facing so many people. The Earth is in crisis,” writes the Extinction Protocol.

Bowing before eternity is something monks get used to doing but now at these end of times or whatever else you want to call it, we all need to get the knack of seeing beyond the pain and suffering around and inside of us through tuning into the everlasting feelings.

This is one of the few beautiful videos I have seen on the Internet lately—been waiting for the right place to share this and now it has found a perfect home. This is a good empathy test. Experience yourself watching this and count the tears. If you have none, you are hopeless in terms of having an open heart to feel and identify deeply with the pain, courage and beauty of others.

The tears of the melting heart are felt every time we cross the boundaries of our hearts. When we enter and even when we leave we can feel these tears, which represent our vulnerable feelings—our pure feelings.

When one states they believe in God,it is important to ask what is their definition. Is it a god replete with human emotion & ego & if so,this is not a god of perfection.All things positive in perfection cannot be anything else. God is perfectly total,complete,loving,beyond all time & space,without parts,divisions,dualities,& equally present in All That Is. One must go within to cultivate awareness/consciousness,as was stated, “heaven is within you”. There we find God as self-revealing,beyond all form.This is a threat to the ego as it was programmed in us from birth as being real & it will do anything to persist & survive. To ‘soften’ the ego,one must develop humility, & love. To truly know love is to know & understand God, & to know God is to understand love.

Once you have practiced meditation, you will notice the benefits as you calm down. You can consciously use it in your everyday work life, too. If you get too stressed, just breathe regularly and strive to attain that same grounded, calm feeling that you get when meditating. Effects Of Meditation

Enjoy your posts thoroughly…..in this one I feel the need to give some input. The first Chakra or centre is the Mooladhara and it is the basis or foundation for all the Chakras hence it is of vital importance. Although it has only Four petals or arms , one of which control the sexual and lower physical parts of excretion etc. it has many other aspects and is directly connected to our emotional side or Ida Nadi …it is the basis of Innocence and Wisdom hence it’s connection with Lord Ganesha and symblised by the Swastika…..I could go on with it’s many technical aspects and importance but the overiding importance in terms of Spiritualati and point of confussion is that it is placed BELOW the Kundalini energy which is responsible for our second birth when She rises up the middle channel or Sushumna Nadi placed above Her abode in the Sacrum bone placed above the Mooladhara Chakra.

In Her ascent when She crosses the Agnya Chakra at the optic thalamus than the Mind is allowed to still and the aspirant experiences Thoughtless Awareness, the meditative state beyond the realm of thoughts, this has to be a natural event and the mind cannot be party to it’s activation . Than the Kundilini pierces the fontanelle bone in the centre of the Head and opens the Sahastrara Chakra connecting the Aspirant with the All Pervading Energy known by many names.

Hope you don’t mind me sharing this with you for the sake of clarity

When I meditate I ask the one true God, the God of Abraham, Issac and Jacob to reveal Himself and His truth to me. He has never failed me or disappointed me. In the person of Jesus Christ He provided an entrance to our hearts and resides in us by His Holy Spirit. We are the temple of God which has always by design been His hearts desire. Our meditation and communion is with Him and Him alone. Ask, seek and knock and you shall surely have. You can always depend on Him. I recommended Him.

Sung-Bong Choi, Jackie Evancho, Susan Boyle. All of these inspire; all of these show that appearances can be, and often are, very deceiving. Not all ‘hard luck’ stories, but all moving and spiritually uplifting.

Interestingly, all three exhibit a beautiful humility in the face of awesome talent. Some might even say ‘God-given’ talent.

Thanks for sharing this video, Mark. I am originally from Park Slope, and I know you know where that is.

Wow, didn’t think I’d be getting new age propaganda from IMVA. And a correction: Christ did not say “As I walk through the valley and shadow of death I shall fear no evil because the Lord is with me”. This is one of the psalms written by King David, big difference. This isn’t even a New Testament quote, it’s Old Testament.
Sorry to see that you think if one is not moved by a hard luck story/tv show/song one has not empathy. Life is what you make it and we all control our will/destiny, which I feel is more the point of the KGT clip.

REPLY TO CHRISTINA

What ‘new age propaganda’? Does the origin of the “AS I WALK………” quote diminish its value to spiritual seekers? Sorry that you see the kids past as just ‘a hard luck story’. I hope your luck runs out while in company with people like yourself! Then, the meaning of empathy will shock you out of your slumber.

Your chief obstacle in life is lack of knowledge. If you had that, you would not make stupid statements like….” Life is what you make it and we all control our will/destiny….”. You have absolutely no idea of who rules the world and how they do it. On the one hand you ascribe luck as a determinant of the kid’s material condition but then you claim that “we all control our will/destiny”. Soooo….the kid did his sad past to himself. Maybe you should teach us how to be just like you….to avoid bad luck!

Prayer and faith in God have kept what little hope there is living.

It was written by someone that those species that are leaving the third dimensional Earth plane now, await us at the next higher level. They have arrived already in the fifth dimension having earned the right to ascend. Somehow that rang true for me. Somehow I found that greatly comforting.

There is no political system that will work until each of us changes within. Any system will work when each of us is functioning from a higher realm of thinking and connected to our higher self. I try to keep in mind that all that is happening is like the unfolding of the flower. In this case the unfolding flower is an evolutionary unfolding in the process of ascension.

Try to find peace and surf the waves as the energy of ascension builds.
